Make unanswered research questions visible
Keep track of what the available web evidence still does not answer, alongside the research that raised the question.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Data
Creates a research data item in a project.
Why this helps
Teams revisit the same searches because unanswered questions disappear into old browser sessions.
- Make missing evidence visible for future research.
- Keep follow-up questions linked to the findings that raised them.
- Reduce repeated searches caused by forgotten gaps.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airtop and Dovetail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, define the research scope and ask Notis to record unanswered questions and missing evidence from available Airtop results as Dovetail project data.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real set of results and review the recorded gaps in Dovetail.
Questions about this workflow
Can this tell whether an unanswered question was resolved later?
Only if the later results or a historical record are available to the run. Otherwise provide that context or ask Notis to report gaps without claiming resolution.
What counts as a research gap?
Define your criteria in the instruction, such as a question without a credible source or a claim lacking supporting evidence.
What gets saved?
A Dovetail data item with the unresolved questions and missing evidence identified from available Airtop results.
